Ahmad, Redington Shores

Disliked: Cleanliness
On appearance, everything looked pretty good until we were attacked by bedbugs in the middle of the night, my wife found a bedbug, actually crawling on her and was eaten all over her arm. I told the staff about it in the morning, didn’t seem too shocked.

Our favourite place to stay when visiting London. Easy walk to Paddington Station and close to plenty of dining options. Even though the rooms are small, they are clean and modern looking. Staff were amazing and friendly. Buffet breakfast was also very reasonable.

Can’t say enough positive about our stay. The location is great with easy connections at Paddington and proximity to Hyde Park. We easily mad the walk to Buckingham several times. Appreciated the breakfast and the kind ladies that worked the breakfast area. I would stay again and recommend to others. Very good experience!

Cockroaches were found in the toilet. We were moved to another room - the toilet bowl was not cleaned (it was faecal stained). Raised issues with the receptionist who assured that it would be mentioned to their manager.
